I recently came across this video on someone else's blog and I couldn't help but to indulge myself and watch it, and I loved it! It explains why the wedding ring goes on the fourth finger of the hand and it is so true. Now before watching this video, let me explain something. I have heard alot of buzz about some people I know getting married within the next couple years. That's fine. Congrats!
Believe me, falling in love is the easy part.People often think that marriage is like the love stories and movies....not the case! You have to work to actually stay in love, and that's where people usually go wrong! Both parties have to be willingly to work to stay in the relationship, stay in love, stay committed and faithful, and be willingly to make the necessary sacrifices in order for the relationship to grow.
Marriage is not just like a relationship, in which you can walk away, or just say it's over, or go sleep with someone else because you are mad at your spouse! It does not work that way! Feelings are temporary, so do not act on an impulse and than be stuck with permanent consequences.
And please don't marry someone because you want to "keep them". That's just like the age old theory that if you have a baby by someone, that you will keep them. If a person really wants to stay, nothing can make them leave. And if a person really wants to leave, nothing can make them stay. The sooner people realize this, the better. For those who are actually ready for marriage and have what it takes to make a marriage work ((not a relationship)) congrats and kudos to you! And I wish you and yours nothing but well wishes and happiness. For those of you who know you are NOT ready for marriage, and that you are just in love with the idea of marriage and having a husband, you need to chill out and wait until you are ready. Because if you do something and you are not ready, it will show in your actions and your marriage will fail. You will both cheat, he will cheat, or you will cheat, or some type of abuse will go on, or you will end up with a divorce. Marriage is a big step, so only take it when YOU KNOW YOU ARE READY AND NOT A MOMENT BEFORE THAT!
Please really listen to the message behind this video, and take into account the meaning behind it. Enjoy! ((And thanks B. Lanier, I stole it from your blog lol))
